Entourage and the Sox



So, it seems as if in each of the last few years, I get into a show I've relatively ignored, and then feel as if I've really been missing something. In 2006, it was The Shield. The next year it was The Wire. This is the year of Ari Gold and Entourage. It's not really a breakthrough, like the others. But what it is, is really funny. Laugh out loud funny.

Sox won tonight. Rad. When i was old enough to be left alone during summer days, I used to watch the replays of the Sox games in the mornings. I would pretend I was pitching for them, and wing the ball into an old recliner we had in our living room.

Life's shitty now. Thank god for sports.

no, man. i missed the first couple episodes for some reason or the other. I will be checking it out on dvd though. did you? I was a great, big, happy fan of the wire. so, i'm sure it's good.

pretty tight stuff. of course, nothing else will ever be the wire. but it is highly recommended.
